About Mrs. Nachos

I Heart Mr. Nachos

March 26th, 2010 @ 11:54 am by Mrs. Nachos

And I am one good fiance.

Mr. Nachos knew he found the perfect wedding duds the moment he tried them on – all white, crisp linen pants and a button down shirt. The pants were about 437 inches too long, but he planned to take them to the cleaners eventually and get them altered. In the mean time, he bought these to wear on the wedding day…

Comfy and cute and they looked just fine. Fast forward to yesterday – he picked up his freshly altered pants from the cleaners and they did a fantastic job. But when he put it all together, more of the dark shoes showed and they looked like a big poop stain on a fresh layer of fluffy snow.

So we hit the interwebs and searched for some white flip-flops. But let me tell you, unless you’re a woman or willing to suck up the pain of wearing $3 Old Navy plastic flippy floppies that hurt his feet, white ones are hard to find! We searched and searched, finding a few that would work but weren’t available in his size. And I could tell he was getting to the point of frustration that I was at when trying to find my shoes. Then I found these on eBay…

I heart Rocket Dogs almost as much as I heart Mr. ‘Chos. He wasn’t sure. They had the thick canvas strap that he was looking for and the price was right, but he was frustrated and he didn’t want to look anymore.

So today at work I went online and bought them. Yep, I sure did. I figured if they don’t fit/look right/whatever, he didn’t spend a dime on them. If they do work, there will be no more frustration and he will have his shoes. I’ll let you all know how they look when we get them. Keep your fingers crossed for Mr. Nachos’ (perfect?) footwear!

P.S. - I wanted to take a picture of him wearing his flip-flops but he wouldn’t let me, so I chased him around the house trying to get a picture of his feet – we ended up laughing so hard until there were tears… this is the best I could get for you all, hee hee…

Did you or your FI fret over his wedding day shoes?

LOL! This post is too funny! I love how you described the brown flip flops as looking like “a big poop stain on a fresh layer of fluffy snow” and the feet pics are hysterical. My FI would do the same thing!

I love the rocket dog sandals - I think they’d look really sharp with the white linen pants!

those are awesome, but if they don’t fit or he doesn’t end up liking the way the feel try reefs they usually have every color under the sun, and there is like zero break in factor, I’m still wearing a pair I bought 4 years ago!

Awwww! Mr. D refuses to wear flip flops cause he doesn’t like anything in between his toes so he wears those ones that go straight across like Etnies.

Nope, he knew exactly what he wanted to wear the moment I said yes to his proposal…Converse Chuck Taylors….they’re going to be bright canary yellow!

Very cute- I love Rocketdog too! Had you considered maybe a light beige color sandal? They are probably easier to find than white (just in case these don’t work out), and wont look like poop (LOL at that!) Best wishes!

I’m all about letting H.Dizzle wear what he wants on the big day… Save for a ratty gym tee and jeans… LOL

You guys are so funny! Glad you found something that at least looks feasible, we’ll see how picky he really is when they come in!

I like your description, too bad you didn’t get pics of the entire ensemble mired by the brown flippies ;)

Maybe something in the tan variety will make it less weird-looking?

I just wish I could convince Mr Spin to wear flip flops. He hates them and thinks they look ridiculous. So in the summer he wears shandals to the pool and on our float trips.

What are shandals you ask? Oh ho ho, you haven’t lived until you see the love of your life in tennis shoes that have had the toes and heels cut out so they look like this: http://www.freedomfootbags.com/blog/shandals-footbag-hacky-sack-shoes/

How do these look less ridic than flip flops? I have no idea. ^_^ He has yet to explain that to my satisfaction.

LMAO!!! I love how you chased him around the house for us! My hubby would have run away from me also, but it’s still hilarious!
